Celebrity Mommy Friends

There's nothing like the bond of motherhood — who else totally gets the wackiness of pregnancy (and the sleepless nights that follow)? And that's why being mamas strengthened (or sparked) a friendship for these celebs, especially if they were pregnant at the same time. Check out which celebrity friends have kept their momance going strong.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler

Former "Weekend Update" co-anchors Tina Fey and Amy Poehler always had a lot in common — the funnywomen both kick-started their careers in Chicago's improv scene (where they met in 1993), stole the show together on SNL, and now star in back-to-back NBC sitcoms. But now when these two mothers of two get together, it's almost all baby talk. And even though this pair wasn't pregnant together, at least the 30 Rock creator had expecting costar Jane Krakowski on set as a pregnancy pal.

Alyson Hannigan and Cobie Smulders

Costars Alyson Hannigan and Cobie Smulders spent a lot of time holding big boxes and standing behind tables to hide their baby bumps in season four of How I Met Your Mother. The two on-and-off-screen friends announced their pregnancies just weeks apart, though neither baby-to-be was written into the script (but Alyson's character, Lily, and her TV hubby, Marshall, finally had their first several seasons later). Alyson welcomed her daughter Satyana in March 2009, and Cobie's little girl Shaelyn followed in May. Their on-set nursery is definitely packed, with Neil Patrick Harris' twins Gideon and Harper joining the mix in October 2010, and Aly's second, Keeva, in May 2012.

The Spice Girls

All five Spice Girls have since become Spice Mums, but these pop princesses outdid themselves with a string of back-to-back pregnancy announcements. Emma Bunton welcomed a mini-Baby Spice, a boy named Tate, in May 2011, and Victoria Beckham and Melanie B added a little Girl Power to their families a few months later. Posh welcomed a daughter named Harper the following July, and Scary gave birth to a baby girl in early September.

Naomi Watts and Nicole Kidman

Leading ladies Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts are BFFs (the two met as teens on auditions in Australia), but they grew even closer when Naomi announced she was four months pregnant with her second baby-boy-to-be, Samuel "Sammy" Kay, just weeks before Nicole gave birth to her first biological child, Sunday Rose. But Naomi wasn't alone during her first pregnancy with Sasha in 2007 — she forged a lasting friendship with fellow Aussie Isla Fisher, who was also pregnant with her first, Olive. And there's more: Naomi and Nicole are each godmothers to Australian actor Simon Baker's sons. Talk about an Oz Fest!

Ivanka and Vanessa Haydon Trump

Just months after Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, announced she and hubby Jared Kushner were pregnant with their first, his son, Donald Jr., revealed that his wife was pregnant as well (and you thought your sister-in-law always pulled the trump card). Ivanka gave birth to her first child, a daughter named Arabella, in July 2011. And this little girl quickly became a cousin — Aunt Vanessa gave birth to a son, Tristan, in October 2011. Hopefully the Donald is ready to expand his family business!

Kate Hudson and Liv Tyler

Kate and Liv were already good friends when they became pregnant at the same time (their sons Ryder and Milo were born just a month apart), and now the former pregnancy pals arrange playdates together. With A-list moms, rocker dads (Kate’s son Ryder’s dad is Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson and Liv’s son Milo’s pop is Spacehog’s Royston Langdon), and famous grandparents, what don’t their two boys have in common?

Martina McBride and Faith Hill

Two of country’s finest females are also good friends with six girls close in age. Martina’s family, which consists of Delaney, Emma, and Ava Rose, have perfect playmates in Faith Hill and Tim McGraw’s Gracie, Maggie, and Audrey. And apparently megamom Gwyneth Paltrow wants in on the action — she became buddies with Faith and Tim while filming Country Strong and admitted her son Moses is smitten with Audrey (even though they’re five years apart!).
